Tennessee vs. Georgia Prediction
I’m on the under here. I think both of these offenses really need some work, but both are dying for a win here and will likely have to rely on the defenses to get them there. This just feels like a hard-nosed, black and blue, SEC matchup, so I’m going to roll with the under in this one as I think it’s won in the trenches.
